Conditional ESL Undergraduate Admission

The University offers a conditional undergraduate admission option only for freshman students who do not meet the minimum English language requirement. Applications from transfer students will not be accepted for the conditional admission program.

Students must complete an Undergraduate Application and an Intensive English Language Program (IELP) application. A fee of $150 ($40 for the undergraduate application and $110 for the IELP application) must be submitted with the application package. All acceptance packages will be sent via express mail service.

If students meet the admission standards and are offered a conditional admission by the Undergraduate Admissions Office, they will be admitted to the IELP course of study and issued an I-20. Upon successful completion of IELP, achieving a 79 ibt or 6.0 IELTS score, and having the recommendation of the Director of IELP, students will be able to matriculate as full-time undergraduate students.
